"It’s likely safe to assume that 2 years later (now) <strike>there are still less than 150</strike> Master Sommeliers on the planet." That may have been true had The Court Of Master Sommeliers not been qualifying folks since 1969. Thanks to @HipsterEnology for this information. http://www.courtofmastersommeliers.org/members.html My research applies/ied to the official 1977 establishment of the Court of Master Sommeliers as the premier international examining body. Taking the years from 1969 to 1976 into consideration, there are fewer than 175 Master Sommeliers on the planet. How's that? Thanks again for reading! Cheers, Kamary Well, you know what they say about assumptions!
